Dave's hair poll

Dave is a hair-changer. He gets sick of the same hairdo all the time and likes to switch it up.

He goes from the classic:(yeah, I'll be in trouble for posting that one :)

To the long locks:To the middle-ground:To the shaved head:Which gradually fades into the "tennis ball" do:Oh and we can't leave out the middle-part "wings" he had when we got married:Right now he's ready for a change.

And I keep joking with him that he shouldn't do it.

Of course, I think he's handsome no matter what, and hey, when you still have that much hair you should switch it up whenever you can.

But we thought it'd be fun to see what others think...to see if they agree with me or him on his next step.

Should he go long?or shorter:or super short:Hmmmmmm.What do you think?

p.s. I think this is a funny post, but hey, gotta mix it up with a little fluff right?You never know, maybe I'll do a poll on whether I should get bangs next...

My husband has also run the gamut for hair lengths since we've been married (17 yrs) and he has finally decided on a hair style that looks the best (shaved- number 3 all over). He always prided himself on being able to grow the longer style, but honestly, it didn't really look that good.

I like the short style the best. It looks the most masculine to me (not sure if that is what he's aiming for, but that is what I like best). The only problem with it is upkeep. It must be shorn every couple of weeks though in order to avoid the tennis ball head. So, maybe you can keep some clippers near by and just give it a quick once-over whenever it starts to look too puffy.

Shorter, but not SUPER short.. Stumbled upon your blog and LOVE IT! After reading older posts I realize that your parents are the authors the Eyres. I remember seeing your family on the Oprah show way back in the 90's and was smitten with the love you all had for each other. Upon seeing that show I fell in love with the name Jonah and tucked that name away for my future child's name. I have a 13 year old son that I proudly named Jonah and when people ask how I decided upon his name I tell them that it was all because of this wonderful family that I had the privilege of seeing on TV and wished to have the same type of openness, and loving relationship with my children as those folks did. What a wonderful family you are blessed to have :-) Many blessings to you and yours in 2012!

Denny's says: The middle-part "wings" is a timeless look, the tennis ball style is sexy in an adolescent way, the long-locks make me feel badly about my own receding hairline-final answer: middle ground.

Does all this make me sound a little gay...Dang he is a good looking man!

Lucky him to have SO MUCH HAIR!! I vote for shorter (the pic w the white/blue plaid shirt on). The longer look and the super short look are both a little 'young' looking for him - they work well for the 20's and early 30's (which he probably was in those pics)

I vote "shorter" like it is in the picture with the blue plaid shirt and green blurry background. Sounds like I'm not the only one who thinks this! Then save the shaved head for summer when it's super hot out.

He's lucky to have such a nice head of hair, so he can pull off lots of different looks. I personally think he would look best with it a little shorter on the sides/back and a little longer on top – kind of like Bradley Cooper. Whatever Dave decides to do, make sure you post pictures!

Long! Let him get it into a pony tail... too many men cut their hair like they're in the military. I wish more men had the moxy to break from the crowd and do something different with their hair. Your husband has great hair, let it grow!

haha...this post kills me. My husband & son have similar hair & now I am starting to think they should switch it up a bit more. I like short or super short the best. I think the longer hair looks like an {I'm using this word loosely!} older guy trying to look like he's in HS. eek. Sorry was that rude? I think he looks better short or even super short.

this is hilarious! my vote is long!! not so long that it starts to flip out at the ends, but middlish-long. it all boils down to bragging rights, and how many 40 (isn't that how old he is?) year olds can successfully pull off long hair? Yup, I vote long!

For sure the shorter but not buzzed. You husband has similar characteriscts of James Denton (aka Mike Delfino from Desperate Housewives.) He has a manly ruggid look anyhow so the short classic clean cut hair along with the ruggid facial characteristics does any man good. I also think have him grow it out for summer. Then by summer it is a new change and a summer surf look.

How does Dave feel about having so many pictures of himself in one post? That's more than an entire year probably. He's a good sport. I think he looks best in the middle-ground and shorter looks. I am the same way, changing it up all the time, but I'm a girl. I've actually kept the same hair style for a year and the one before that for a year, which is AMAZING!!

I agree with Maria’s post above! (I think I am the only guy commenting on this post. Can’t help it. My other half is a Men’s Stylist/Biz Owner.) The official word from the stylist world is that long hair on men is coming back in...and if you have the Sampson-Zesty head of hair your David is fortunate to have...Grow it Long!

Where I live there are more distinct seasons, so I would vote for longer in the winter and shorter in the spring/summer. It looks great either way. You are too cute to post this "fluff" as you call it.

I am obviously late to the "poll" and I know it's closed by now, but I'm laughing with surprise reading all the votes for shorter! What???! I think the longish hair is awesome! Not forever, but why not for a few months? I think we're all VERY conservative in our culture... if you know what I mean. :0 My husband would never grow a goatee, let along let his hair grow longer. But that is some great hair; go for it!
